Key Management 

Protocol

Choose WPA2 in this field.

WPA Compatible

Check this box if you want your G-1000 to support WPA2 and WPA at the same 

time. This might reduce the performance of the device, however.

WPA Group Key 

Update Timer

The WPA Group Key Update Timer is the rate at which the AP (if using WPA2-

PSK key management) or RADIUS server (if using WPA2 key management) 

sends a new group key out to all clients. The re-keying process is the WPA2 

equivalent of automatically changing the WEP key for an AP and all stations in a 

WLAN on a periodic basis. Setting of the WPA Group Key Update Timer is also 

supported in WPA2-PSK mode. The G-1000 default is 1800 seconds (30 minutes).
